Paraneoplastic dermatomyositis with Kaposi's sarcoma: A case report

Dermatomyositis is a rare autoimmune condition known to be frequently associated with an undiagnosed malignancy. Although it is strongly linked to adenocarcinomas and other solid tumors, dermatomyositis has been scarcely described with sarcomas. We present a 63-year-old patient with simultaneous presentations of Kaposi's sarcoma and dermatomyositis. This case highlights Kaposi's sarcoma as a potential malignancy associated with dermatomyositis and the complexities of managing multimorbid patients.
